no crystal glass could tempt me
to drink so deep of the vine
as when you held me close
and I savored your kisses of wine

moonlight washed the landscape
from the terrace a beautiful view
the town below lay sleeping
the world belonged to me and you

bodies caressed by the ocean breeze
caught up in your warm embrace
addicted to the taste of wine kisses
I turned and lifted my face
